Go exotic when it comes to chocolate
Challenge Yourself for: 24 Hours
Chocolate has truly become the province of gourmands, with all sorts of exotic additions and flavorings. Dark chocolate balances these flavors particularly well, and we like it for its antioxidant punch. Today, challenge yourself to try something different and sample a Fair Trade dark chocolate with sea salt, pomegranate, or other new flavor infusion.

I love trying chocolate especiall the candy
I much prefer dark chocolate over the standard milk chocolate. Mostly this is because I’m lactose intolerant, but I think that dark chocolate has a more complex flavor and it pairs well with many things. I’m a fan of the spicy chili variety.
I love dark chocolate, especially with cocoa nibs, hot peppers or some spicy element.. DELISH!
I just bought a Newman’s Own Sweet Orange Dark Chocolate bar and savor it daily. I buy dark chocolate whenever my body says “Buy it now!,” which is often.
I only eat dark chocolate and the darker the better. I especially love the dark chocklate with pommagranite in it or with dried cherries or cranberries. I buy a couple of bags of them a month and then ration myself to two or three pieces a day so it lasts for the whole month. It is my reward for sticking to my diet the rest of the day. I have got to a point where milk chocolate just tastes too mild and wwwwaaaayyyy too sweet.
I’ve only eaten dark chocolate for at least five years. It’s so much more delicious than milk and I absolutely LOVE it with raspberries. I also really like the Kashi Cherry Dark Chocolate bars…they are such an unusual but great combo!
It’s a wonderful coincidence that I like it much better than milk chocolate! Add fruit and/or nuts, and it’s heavenly!
We got some Fair Trade chocolate the other day – there were different bars in a package, some with curry, some with chile powder – so yummy – the different tastes challenge your palette as to what you expect in a chocolate bar.
I could not find any candy with the logo on it, tried several stores that sell candy but no luck.
I love chocolate without all the infusion that distracts from the flavor. (lavender, rose, etc.. it yucks it up)
i only eat dark chocolate with more than 70% cocao in it i also eat the new diabetic chocolate that does not raise your blood sugar levels
I love dark chocolate it has such a great taste!
Who would have thought sea salt would have made a good chocolate great!
I need to watch my cholesterol and dark chocolate wins!
I dont like dark chocolate so maybe I can start eating it and maybe grow to love it Hey its worth a try.
